I seldom make predictions....far too much water under the bridge at my age so I will leave that for the youth BUT, if you need to put some smelt in the freezer and wanna do it yourself I am thinking this saturday "just may, possibly"be your best chance to do it.
Commercial guys are still doing spotty down here BUT the price has come down to 6 bucks a pound if you buy in bulk.
I have seen no gull activity BUT did watch three harbour seals at gearheart and a load of fish ducks working the stretch near the launch yesterday. With the water temp rising and nice day time temps I am thinking this comming sat just may be worth taking a chance.
Remember...by the time you hear the smelt are in, then the run for the year is over.
Gonna be a crap shoot but I think the chances are the best they will be for any dippers with freezer space.
